We have recently suffered bombardment by the most despicable, disgusting, demonizing political ads imaginable for most of this past year. I don’t want my TV viewing and radio listening co-opted by wealthy political interests in future election years. Discussions with friends, family and neighbors overwhelmingly indicate that I am not alone.

After review and discussion of the issue at our Oct. 1 meeting, the members of the Council of Homeowners Organizations for a Planned Environment have voted to support Foothills Park and Recreation District’s mill-levy request in the upcoming election.

Legislator’s firearm leaves Capitol denizen feeling unsafe

I just attended the town hall given by state House candidate Mary Parker and have to say I learned so much about the Colorado legislative process and a citizen’s role in it.

Liberal school board members are the ones who lack transparency
Editor:
In response to Ms. Trasky’s letter: The only bully here is you, Ms. Trasky. The best interests of the school board and the children would be better served if Lesley Dahlkemper and Jill Fellman stop whining to anyone and everyone who will listen. It seems they deliberately vote against ANY proposals by the new board president.
